ArcGIS Pro

Cloud virtualization

Cloud-based virtualization environments are adding and improving the technology required to support ArcGIS Pro. This includes
GPU resources—either shared or pass-through—just like
on-premises environments. Both Microsoft Azure and AWS support GPU
pass-through instances that provide users of ArcGIS Pro with the
same user experience as they see on a physical workstation.

The Microsoft Azure and AWS products that have been tested with ArcGIS Pro provide full Windows Desktop environments. An important part of
cloud virtualization is using an adequate remote display
protocol to deliver the server-generated
graphics to the users' endpoint. Both the AWS and Microsoft environments have a solution.

There is also a solution for delivering ArcGIS Pro from the cloud
infrastructure to a user with a browser. FRAME, Inc., provides this
technology, supported with adequate GPU resources.
